Second Marriage with the Alliance Marshal

Chapter 101: Welcome dinner

Views:

Time flies, and finally came mid-December, when the Lambda delegation visited Capital Star as scheduled.

Floating Star City is covered in silver, and the long street is covered with snow.

Today's news is scrolling on the mobile floating screen in the air—

The Speaker of the Supreme Council of the Lambda Galaxy, Lin Jinshuang, together with his wife and the official team, visited Capital Star and will attend the welcome dinner hosted by Chairman William at 6:00 tonight.

At around five o'clock in the evening, the extended version of the black military vehicle with the license plate number AA00001 was speeding in the sky, and its destination was the state banquet hall of the Ferry Palace.

Xu Xinghe, who was wearing a fine suit, and Ling Changfeng, who was wearing a military uniform, were sitting in the car, leaning side by side.

Xu Xinghe seemed to be in a good state tonight, talking more than usual along the way, chatting with Ling Changfeng non-stop, and pointing out the window from time to time, motioning him to watch the interesting pictures flashing by in the miniature of the city.

Adjutant Qin sat opposite them, looked at the hands of the two clasped fingers, endured and endured, and finally couldn't help saying: "I said, you two have been stuck all the way, aren't you tired of crooked?"

As soon as the words fell, the two people on the opposite side turned their heads to look at themselves.

That look seemed to say "Look at that single dog", "It looks so miserable".

Qin Yuan: "..."

Blame him for talking too much!

"Is there anything I need to pay attention to at the banquet?" Xu Xinghe asked, "Except...that matter."

Adjutant Qin shook his head and replied: "There's nothing else. The welcome dinner is just a few hundred people's boring greetings, media meetings, formal meals, as well as cultural performances and dances. It's not interesting."

Xu Xinghe asked again: "Then what do I need to do?"

"Just stay with me." This time it was Ling Changfeng who spoke.

Marshal Ling patted his lover's hand, and the two looked at each other, tacit understanding.

Qin Yuan knew that they weren't flirting on purpose, but the two of them don't know what's wrong now, as long as they look at each other, they seem to be stuck together, they can't be torn apart, and they tacitly understand each other The code word was deduced into a flirtatious teaser.

Seeing this, the adjutant simply turned his gaze out of the window without looking at the couple in the car.

Speaker William Martino will host a banquet at the Ferry Palace tonight to welcome the Lambda Galaxy delegation.

There were as many as 600 people from the military and political circles of the two major galaxies attending the banquet, and the long welcoming avenue was endless at a glance.

Xu Xinghe was familiar with this kind of occasion, and he didn't stop at the media interview area after getting off the car. Amidst the frenzied click of the shutters and the flickering spotlights of the media, he and Ling Changfeng directly walked into the Ferry Palace arm in arm.

At 6:30 in the evening, after a short exchange of pleasantries, the speakers of the two galaxies walked into the magnificent state banquet hall together, and the grand reception finally kicked off.

The beautiful and cheerful welcome song echoed in the hall, and everyone took their seats.

Although the state banquet was originally a formal and serious occasion, it became lively when there were more people.

Xu Xinghe looked around, there were hundreds of people sitting in a dense crowd.

He is not sensitive to the pheromones of ordinary people. He took a deep breath at this moment, and there was only Ling Changfeng's breath in his nose.

"Are you okay?" Ling Changfeng sat beside Xu Xinghe, quietly observing his little spouse.

Xu Xinghe nodded, turned his head and smiled: "It's nothing, but I don't seem to feel it..."

Ling Changfeng shook his head: "Let's eat first, and talk about things later in another place."

Xu Xinghe said "hmm", then changed the topic, pointed to the dinner plate with a fork and said, "I heard that the head chef in charge of the state banquet this time is Komo Sinde, a very famous chef, I tried to He has reproduced his signature dish-Grilled Angus Ribeye Steak, and everyone who has eaten it says it is good!"

"People who have eaten it?" Marshal Ling heard the words, his eyes drifted over faintly, and asked in a neutral tone: "Who has eaten it?"

"A lot of people. Like my college classmates, and a few colleagues... Uh, you want to eat too?"

Xu Xinghe finally noticed his lover's "kind" gaze, and his tone suddenly became stuck.

Ling Changfeng just casually commented: "So many people have eaten."

Xu Xinghe thought something was wrong.

Sure enough, Ling Changfeng continued to ask: "Why don't I?"

Xu Xinghe: "..."

Because you said it yourself, you are not interested in eating!

Chef Xu complained a little in his heart, but on the surface he still conscientiously smoothed the cat's hair: "Then I'll go back and make it for you?"

Ling Changfeng glanced at him, shook his head lightly and said, "No, I'm not very interested in eating either."

Xu Xinghe: "..."

Why is this cat getting more and more difficult to serve!

He racked his brains to find another reason: "In the final analysis, the food at the Marshal's Mansion is so good! I used to cook by myself, and if I cooked too much, I would share it with everyone. But now it's not, it's rarely needed I cook for myself."

Marshal Ling let out a "hmm".

Xu Xinghe turned his head to look, but found that the pair of different pupils were looking at him with a smile, and there was no emotion in their eyes at all.

It turned out that he was lying to himself again!

Xu Xinghe turned his head angrily, forked the cod on the plate viciously, and swallowed it in two or three mouthfuls.

"Slow down, don't choke." Marshal Ling pushed his water glass over and looked at him helplessly: "Eat in such a hurry, have you tasted it yet?"

Xu Xinghe: "..." It seems that there really isn't one.

"I'll give you this too." After Ling Changfeng said, he pushed his untouched dinner plate over.

Xu Xinghe was not polite either.

Once again, under the envious eyes of everyone around, he achieved the achievement of "snatching food from the mouth of a tiger".

At 7:30 in the evening, with the end of the meal session, the dinner officially entered the time for theatrical performances.

The representative art programs of the two galaxies were staged in the center of the stage one after another, and as the supreme military commander of the Gamma galaxy, Marshal Ling had his own exclusive VIP seat.

He took Xu Xinghe upstairs by elevator, and walked into a private room on the second floor where he could watch the performance alone.

The glass of the box is one-way, and the sound insulation effect is excellent. Even the sound of the music from the outside can only be transmitted into the room through a loudspeaker.

Less than five minutes later, the door of the box was knocked. Ling Changfeng glanced at Qin Yuan's face on the monitoring screen, and said "Enter".

The fully automatic security door opened, and Adjutant Qin walked in with a portable terminal.

As soon as Qin Yuan entered, he locked the door from the inside and turned off the loudspeaker in the room.

The sound of the performance on the stage suddenly disappeared.

The box seems to have become a closed space, mysterious and quiet.

Qin Yuan turned on the optical brain terminal, and holographically projected the recorded images of more than one hundred surveillance cameras in the banquet hall into the air.

"I need to make up a copy of your signature authorization later, otherwise it will be against the regulations for me to do so. This is Ferry Palace..." He said to Ling Changfeng, and at the same time, he split the screen where the three Wells were located come out.

From the time the three of them entered Ferry Palace, from communication to dining, to watching the performance at this moment, all-round images were displayed in front of Xu Xinghe.

"George Wells, Norman Wells, Daniel Wells..."

Qin Yuan pointed at the images of the three of them with his fingertips, and then turned his head to look at Xu Xinghe, "Among these three, is there any figure you are familiar with?"

Perhaps it was because of a layer of projection, Xu Xinghe didn't feel nervous or frightened at all. His eyes swept over the profiles of the three of them, recalling and distinguishing them carefully, and finally shook his head.

"Looking at the figure alone, it doesn't seem to be very similar."

Xu Xinghe frowned and recalled: "I remember that person was tall and strong, taller than me. The three of them are quite tall, but this—"

His fingertips rested on George Wells, "This one is fat, and the other two are thin."

"It's been more than two years, and the body will change, even the height, as long as you want to change, you can change it. There is nothing that modern technology can't do." Qin Yuan sighed slightly, "And the current height of the three of them is 180cm From 185cm to 185cm, there is really not much difference."

Xu Xinghe asked: "Is there any voice from them?"

"Wait a minute." Qin Yuan tuned out the audio and video recordings of the three of them.

After listening to the public speech of the three, Xu Xinghe still shook his head, "I remember that person's voice was a little lower than this one, and although the tone seemed soft and perverted, the tone itself was still a bit hoarse... But I'm not sure if that's it Because there was a mask at the time."

"I was down there just now, and I didn't smell his disgusting smell." Xu Xinghe frowned and discerned for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and said, "Maybe he didn't come."

Ling Changfeng stood behind him and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry..."

No matter how you listen to it, it seems that you haven't finished speaking, and the tone is also the kind of abrupt end that only half a sentence was said.

"Huh?" Xu Xinghe looked back at Ling Changfeng.

The latter pursed his lips, but did not continue.

Xu Xinghe guessed that he had his own arrangements, so he didn't ask any more questions, just asked: "What should we do next?"

Ling Changfeng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass of the VIP room on the second floor, looking at the glittering stage full of singing and dancing. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said: "It's time for the dance, let's go down and dance."

Xu Xinghe was stunned: "Huh?"

Marshal Ling said succinctly: "Everyone is here."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and extended an invitation to his partner tonight.

Xu Xinghe looked at the hand that was offered, and suddenly smiled: "Okay."

He put his hand on it: "whether that person is there or not, let's have a good night first?"

Ling Changfeng hummed lightly.

Xu Xinghe smiled and asked him: "Why did you suddenly think of inviting me to dance? What's the matter 'I'm here', it doesn't sound like what you said. You can't plan it for a long time, and you practiced it secretly at home. Bar?"

"No." Ling Changfeng shook his head, "I don't have time recently."

Xu Xinghe: "..."

That's right, Ling Changfeng has been so busy recently that he can barely touch the ground.

Thinking of how busy he was with his own affairs at the end of the year, Xu Xinghe looked apologetic: "I've worked hard on you lately."

When Ling Changfeng heard this, he held Xu Xinghe's hand and pulled him in front of him, looking down at him.

He didn't say "no hard work" with a blank face as usual, but leaned slightly, and let the scorching breath fall into the little spouse's ear, and asked in a low voice: "Then how do you plan to reward me?"

Xu Xinghe's ears itched, and his face suddenly turned red.

He even thought a little bit unfairly, this is different when they are together, his big cat has a lot of thick skin.

Xu Xinghe turned his head away, did not look at the pair of different pupils, blushed and asked pretending to be calm: "How do you want to make it up?"

"When things are over..." Ling Changfeng said in a low voice.

Just when Xu Xinghe thought he would make some brazen request, he saw someone straighten up, and changed the subject: "Let's talk about it after the matter is over. Before that, you should take care of yourself first. The rest ,Don't worry."

"Huh?" Xu Xinghe looked up at Ling Changfeng, feeling that something was wrong with him.

His gaze was fixed for too long, and Marshal Ling couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

"It suddenly occurred to me..." Xu Xinghe tilted his head, "At the end of this month, will you be celebrating your 53rd birthday?"

Ling Changfeng cast a faint gaze: "Just thought of it?"

Then he said casually: "It's nothing easy."

"What's the matter? Are you starting to care about your age?" Xu Xinghe smiled like a malicious fox, and leaned over to ask, "What birthday present do you want?"

Ling Changfeng heard the words, but turned his head and gave him a deep look.

Xu Xinghe: "..."

He understood the naked possessiveness in those different pupils, and was momentarily dumbfounded.

"I said..." Adjutant Qin, who was huddled in a corner, trying to reduce his sense of existence, finally couldn't help but speak, "Did you forget that there is another person here?"

As soon as the words were finished, the husband and wife received a shower of attention from both of them.

That look clearly asked, "Why are you still here?"

Qin Yuan left the room angrily, obediently went to the door and waited.

In Xu Xinghe's original prediction, today's welcome dinner would be an earth-shattering farce.

But in the end, it ended in a happy and peaceful atmosphere.

Xu Xinghe and Ling Changfeng danced amidst the attention of everyone, and then went home arm in arm under the attention of the media.

It's like really just going to a party.

The next day, Xu Xinghe went back to work in the ark.

He looked at the five days he had circled on the calendar.

In two and a half days, the people from the Lambda Galaxy will be going back.

Maybe that person is really not in the team, maybe he is dead or maybe...

Xu Xinghe said this to himself.

It's still a long time, as long as that person is alive, he will be found out one day.

And before that day comes, your own life has to look forward.

He sighed in his heart, reached out and drew a cross on today's calendar.

At around seven o'clock in the evening, Xu Xinghe turned off his optical brain, and got off work after greeting his colleagues.

Today is heavy snow again, the cold wind is blowing, and the dark gray clouds are pressing down.

Xu Xinghe walked towards the parking lot.

Ling Changfeng is very busy at the end of the year, and he hasn't come to pick him up after get off work for five or six days.

However, the people from the Marshal's Mansion will still dutifully show up at the exclusive parking space to wait for him every day.

As Xu Xinghe was walking, he suddenly received a call from Lily.

Seeing that it was his sister calling, he pressed the answer button without thinking—

"elder brother!!!"

The girl's exclamation came from the earphones. It was different from the lively and lively voice of the past. The voice was full of panic and fear.

Xu Xinghe's heart stopped suddenly.

"What's wrong Lily?" His voice was a little tight.

"Shh, keep quiet."

A familiar male voice came from the headset.

"Keep calm and keep going, okay? I've come to talk to you about something."

Standing in the wind and snow, Xu Xinghe was cold from head to toe.

- It's Gu Nai.
